Nope. With the Ant installation (binary, I've never had to build Ant myself, yet) you get a fully operational optional.jar with has a usable JUnit task as soon as you have junit.jar in %ANT_HOME%/lib.
Building FOP (HEAD) without "embedded" Ant goes like this: - Install Ant binary distribution - set the ANT_HOME environment variable - extend you PATH variable with %ANT_HOME%\bin - Download JUnit and put the junit-<version>.jar into %ANT_HOME%\lib (if you want to run the testcases) - Download FOP from CVS - go to the xml-fop directory and run "ant" or "./ant.sh" On 12.12.2003 02:42:17 Peter B.
